As the decisions disqualifying former President Donald Trump from the 2024 election work their way through the courts, a new filing in Pennsylvania seeks the same “ballot cleansing” by barring Rep. Scott Perry.
It’s only the latest effort targeting congressional candidates as Democrats seek to bar opponents as “insurrectionists” for questioning the election of President Biden.
We have become a nation of Madame Defarges — eagerly knitting names of those to be subject to arbitrary justice.
Former congressional candidate Gene Stilp, who’s made headlines by burning MAGA flags with swastikas outside courthouses, filed the challenge.
Using the 14th Amendment to disqualify candidates like Perry is consistent with Stilp’s signature flag-burning stunts.

The Commucrat party themselves have always been and always will be a party of insurrectionists. This is yet another reason why, as I've said many times, the Democrat cult should be outlawed and jts leaders barred from ever holding public office again. That party is an absolute cancer eating away at society.

Just my thoughts; These dummies don't realize what they are wishing for, and that is another revolution. They are in love with their belief that they should strike while the going is right, but they seem to never realize that it is the republican patriots that have most all of the guns.

But as Mushbrain has taught us, they have all the F-27xs and new clear bombs. Plus they're smarterer.

All this going on right besides slogans of 'democracy in danger'. It is difficult to believe these people don't see the irony of their positions.

Anyone who believes we can take the country back from the deep corruption of both parties, and the Obama leftists in the media, deep state, and academia at the polls is a fool. It is now a war we must win by any means necessary.

This is right out of obama/s playbook. He won his first election by getting his opponent disqualified.

One of the benefits of President Trump’s term is that he brought the totalitarian designs of the left out into plain view, along with demonstrating how much they have already corrupted our institutions, including corporations and media. As David Horowitz said - "Inside Every Progressive Is A Totalitarian Screaming To Get Out". It’s not a pretty sight, but at least more people see it now.

Dems are using similar tactics to keep any Biden competitors off their own primary ballots. They greatly admire Soviet-style elections.

There was no insurrection. The Democrats decided to use that label because they seem to believe it gives them constitutional authority to assign guilt. No charges, no trial, no conviction necessary. Their opinion should suffice. This is glaringly false and the SC will shut it down. Then we’ll be playing whack a mole to see what they come up with next. They can’t win a fair election. That’s obvious. I just doubt that the Republicans have the gonads to stop them.

This is exactly how Obama won his first elections. Not by defeating Republicans but by getting Dem opponents DQ'ed.

Have to say that there actions for the upcoming 2024 election convince me even more that there was cheating in 2020. Even though they claim not. . .

Sorry for the wrong English - it should be "their" actions and not "there" actions.

So if the election looks bad for the democrat party and they might not be able to cheat their way to victory in 2024 the next option is to bar the republicans from being on the ballot. Is it just me or does this smell like the work of the commies in US and state government offices?

isn't it kind of peculiar that when the ball is in the demcommies court, using the courts is AOK but
- when the repubs use the courts for any reason the demcommies rant and rave
- condemning the repubs for doing what they do and
- without abandon or hesitation

Just another function of the democrat cheating machine. Besides Donald Trump, Kari Lake and a host of others know their tactics. The Justice System in this country needs to follow the Constitution and put the burden of proof on the accuser, not the accused.

The USSC needs to quash this foolishness once and for all. Even then, the leftists would still try to ban Republicans from ballots. They would squeal like suckling pigs if the red states tried this against them!!
